Notes: Executed in 1979, this work is unique and is accompanied by a certificate signed by the artist.
Space can be thought of as the cubic area occupied by a three-dimensional volume. Any volume would occupy space. It is air and cannot be seen. It is the interval between things that can be important to a work of art. If certain distances are important they will be obvious in the piece. If space is relatively unimportant it can be regularized and made equal (things placed equal distances apart), to mitigate any interest in interval. Regular space might also become a metric time element, a kind of regular beat or pulse. When the interval is kept regular, whatever is irregular gains more importance. - Sol Lewitt
